By Ruthie Kott The denim-on-denim look gets a bad rap. But it’s so much more than a Canadian tuxedo: throw on a light chambray shirt, a pair of dark-wash jeans, and a scarf, and you’ve got a fabulous, light weekend outfit. (See fashion blogger Kendi below for inspiration.) But since jeans are often too casual [...]
By Brooke O’Neill Recently, a very stylish friend of mine choose peacock for her wedding colors. The celebration—a sea of lush blues, greens, purples—was inspired, and I’ve been obsessed with the bird ever since. I notice peacocks everywhere: on T-shirts, on tote bags, on scarves. Peacock earrings, bracelets, headbands. Last night I dreamt a peacock [...]
By Huma Rashid Blazers will always be a tried and true business casual favorite. They instantly dress up any outfit, even if it’s just a pair of jeans and a solid tee, and can be worn over a skirt and top for a pretty skirt-suit outfit, or thrown on over a dress. Usually, however, most [...]
By Huma Rashid Generally, I am of the opinion that when it comes to what you wear to work, “romantic” should not be one of the words used to describe your outfit. “Pretty,” yes. “Delicate,” sure. “Feminine,” no reason why not.

By Huma Rashid Sweater dresses are awesome. They make for a great, simple, comfortable look that is absolutely perfect for this time of year. Plus, a sweater dress with a nice bag and nice shoes and not much else makes a great statement. That’s what I had in mind for today’s look, which is inspired [...]
By Huma Rashid Blazers are a tried and true favorite of mine – an old standby, really. If I ever want to dress up an outfit, I throw a blazer on over a pair of jeans and a tee and add heels, or toss it on over a dress for a more formal look. They’re [...]
By Huma Rashid Whenever I wear my hair either fully up or half-up, I always grab a pair of earrings. If I know I’m headed to a rather formal setting (more emphasis on business rather than business casual) I’ll go with something small and short, something that barely hangs a half inch off my earlobe.

By Huma Rashid Today’s post is going to be light and fun. Normally, I stick to some cohesive theme if I’m not doing a single ensemble, but for today, I just want to put up a couple of dresses that I really like. No real commonality between them, no theme. I just think they’re pretty. [...]
By Huma Rashid I rarely feature bracelets in my outfits, usually due to how hard it is just to get a basic outfit without jewelry to fit under the $100 budget I’ve set for myself, but bold bracelets can be a lot of fun, and can inject interest and personality into any outfit. They’re a [...]
By Huma Rashid Fall is just around the corner – in fact, it’s already arrived, depending on where you are in the country. We’ve been lucky in my neck of the woods here in the Midwest; the weather has been quite pleasant, and we have yet to feel a nip in the air. Those slightly [...]
